Six of Celtic's next seven matches are away from home

With the Europa League behind them, Celtic now face a season-defining fortnight.

By 14 March they could be motoring in the league with the wind at their backs and into the Scottish Cup semi-finals.

Or they could be further toiling to defend their title and staring at a trophyless campaign.

The first stop is Ibrox on Sunday for a titanic league match, with Celtic trailing Rangers by two points having played one game fewer, with Hearts six clear of the champions.
